Cookie policy

Last update: February 23, 2026

The website chetipo.com, operated by Egidia Cassinese, uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure proper website operation, improve browsing experience, collect aggregated statistics and, only with consent, enable profiling and remarketing activities. This Cookie Policy explains which cookies are used, for what purposes, for how long, and how to manage or withdraw consent.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on the user's device when visiting a website. They enable the website to function properly, remember preferences, analyse aggregated statistics, provide personalised content or enable marketing features. Some cookies are managed directly by the website ("first‑party"), others by third‑party services ("third‑party").

Types of cookies used
  • Strictly necessary technical cookies: Essential for navigation, cart management and website security. Always active and do not require consent.

  • Analytics cookies: We use Google Analytics 4 to collect aggregated and anonymous data on traffic and user behaviour. Aggregated data retention is 14 months. These cookies are loaded only if the user gives consent.

  • Marketing and profiling cookies: Include Instagram embeds and third‑party features that allow personalised content or ads to be displayed. Loaded only with user consent.

  • Third‑party payment cookies: Stripe, PayPal and Amazon Pay may set their own cookies for secure transaction management.

Examples of cookies present
  • __cf_bm – security and bot mitigation cookie (Cloudflare/Zyro/Hostinger), short duration, technical.

  • ga and ga_<id> – Google Analytics 4 cookies, 14‑month duration, analytical (requires consent).

  • AMP_... – AMP and client ID related cookies, analytical.

  • perf_... – performance/session cookies generated by the platform, technical.

The website uses Google Analytics 4 with Google Signals enabled, which allows remarketing and user profiling for advertising purposes. Collected data may be transferred to non‑EU countries (such as the United States) in compliance with European regulations.

Consent management

The website uses CookieYes for the cookie banner, compliant with the Italian Data Protection Authority guidelines. On first visit, users can:

  • accept all cookies;

  • reject non‑necessary cookies;

  • open preferences to enable/disable individual categories (granular choice).

Until consent is given, analytics and marketing cookies are not loaded. Users can change or withdraw consent at any time via the "Cookie settings" link on the website or by deleting cookies from the browser.

The banner displays "Accept" and "Reject" buttons (or an "X" with reject function) with equal visual prominence, as required by the Italian DPA.

Disabling cookies via browser

Users can block or delete cookies through browser settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, etc.). Disabling cookies may compromise some website features, such as the checkout process or cart management.

Transfers to non‑EU countries

Some third‑party services used (Google, Instagram) may transfer data to countries outside the European Union. Such transfers are carried out based on adequate contractual safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses) and only for the stated purposes: analysis, statistics, advertising profiling.

Purposes and legal basis
  • Technical cookies: technical necessity or legitimate interest of the controller.

  • Analytics and marketing cookies: based on user consent. Will not be used without consent.​

Retention
  • Technical cookies: session or persistent for short periods.

  • Analytics cookies: 14 months.

  • Marketing and third‑party cookies: according to the duration indicated by providers.

Withdrawal of consent and user rights

Users can withdraw consent at any time via the CookieYes banner or by deleting cookies from the browser. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent given before withdrawal.​

Consent is valid for 6 months before it can be requested again, unless preferences are changed by the user or the cache is cleared.​

For further information on personal data rights, please see the website's Privacy Policy.
